How can international funders, Indigenous communities, and NGOs align capital when each defines value differently? The Lexicon of Impacts creates a shared, evidence-based language that makes outcomes visible and translates local knowledge into actionable intelligence. This framework directs catalytic capital to restore living systems and strengthen the communities that depend on them.
The Lexicon™ is a California-based NGO. The Lexicon of Impacts gathers an international community of conservationists, impact investors, scientists, activists, and government agencies. Their work provides a common language and knowledge sharing tools to visually express positive impacts across six key domains: air, water soil, biodiversity, equity and carbon.
